Sandler, Aniston reunite for “Murder Mystery”

Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston are laughing all the way to the bank, again. Variety reports that Sandler will reunite with his “Just Go With It” co-star on Netflix's comedy “Murder Mystery”.

 “Workaholics” co-creator Kyle Newacheck is on board to direct from a script by James Vanderbilt.

The story follows a New York cop (Sandler) and his wife (Aniston), who become prime suspects in the murder of an elderly billionaire while vacationing in Europe.

Sandler and Aniston, according to insiders, had been looking for an opportunity to work together again following the 2011 success of “Just Go With It”, which earned $103 million at the domestic box office, $215 million globally.

 “Murder Mystery” marks Sandler's sixth feature project at Netflix, while it is Aniston's first time working with the streaming giant. She's also attached to star in a new Apple TV series opposite Reese Witherspoon.

Besides her highly-anticipated series at Apple, Aniston most recently appeared in Iraq war drama “The Yellow Birds” and can be seen next in Gem Entertainment's musical comedy “Dumplin”.
